Walleye– plenty of fish being caught on bottom bouncers and crawlers from 10-20 feet of water. Jigs and minnows or plastics also working well. We had a good mayfly hatch last week and anyplace that was going on the fish were in the weeds and weed edges
Pike– pretty much anywhere you go right now there are northerns. Casting spoons or shallow running crankbaits over weed flats and weed edges in 8-15 FOW will put a few in the boat
Salmon– Fish are scattered out quite a bit and can be hard to stay on top of if you find them. Salmon Candy Kryptonite and Optimus Prime flashers either 8 or 11” were mostly the deal for us. Silver or Blue/white flies caught most of our fish with a 23” leader on the 8” flashers and 28-29 on the 11’s. Trolling speed was 2.1-2.2
